will hold a hearing in March 2018 before coming to a decision on Idaho Power's request. Indiana In Indiana, solar energy makes up less than one percent of the state's energy consumption. In Indianapolis, for example, Indianapolis Power & Light has roughly 100 solar customers. In February 2017, the state Senate approved by a vote of 39-9 Senate Bill 309 which would roll back net metering in Indiana. The bill "would ultimately reduce the rate paid to net metering customers from the retail rate to the utility's marginal cost, plus 25%." People who already use solar power with net metering would be grandfathered for ten years at the current rate. The Sierra Club's "Beyond Coal" campaign ran a radio ad campaign to oppose the bill. In April 2017, the state House passed their own version of the bill. As of 2018, a new net metering law is "limiting net metering benefits, but anyone with solar panels installed before January 1, 2018, was able to secure the credit for 30 years. After this date, the credit will be secure for 15 years."

Kansas Kansas Corporation Commission approved demand charges for solar net metering customers of Kansas City Power & Light and Westar Energy fall of 2018. Early 2019 the Clean Energy Business Council (CEBC) introduced SB 124 to remove the punitive charges on solar customers. March 2019 - Evergy (Westar & KCP&L) agreed to file a new tariff with the KCC grandfathering Westar customers who installed solar prior to January 10, 2018, and KCP&L customers who installed prior to 12/20/18, into the old rate thereby eliminating their demand charges. To make further progress, the agreement included a commitment by Evergy to collaborate with the CEBC to find reasonable solutions that allow the solar industry to grow. May 17, 2019 - Westar's tariff to grandfather existing customers was filed. The two utilities together provide about one-third of electricity to Kansas. Commercial and industrial customers of the utilities would not be affected by the demand fees. The demand
